Package: perl-base
Version: 5.6.1-8.2
Severity: normal


Text::Wrap manual writes:
               @lines = wrap($initial_tab, $subsequent_tab, @text);
[...]
       Historical notes: Older versions of "wrap()" and "fill()"
       always returned strings.


Looking into file /usr/share/perl/5.6.1/Text/Wrap.pm (version 2001.0131)
you can see, that wrap() ALWAYS returns a single string but never array.

I guess module is accidentally older than the manual.

Hi,

the note was fixed in perl 5.8.0 and the synopsis (@lines = ...) in perl
5.8.5. The first fixed version in Debian was 5.8.7-2.

I'm closing the bug accordingly.

Cheers,
